I restored the link but I still have a problem with ISPconfig. I cannot login as user "admin" with the password "admin" on first install, I've checked that ispconfig talks with the MySQL server and the replication and everything else related to MySQL works just fine.

The password in the file was different from the one in dbispconfig, changed it in the file because I've tried to change the mysql password to admin before (is this the right way to go?).

You seem to mix up things here. The password in the file is the mysql password for the ispconfig mysql user. It is not the admin password for the ispconfig controlpanel login, so this password is not the same then the admin password.

Have you made a backup of the file so that you can restore the original file?

I made a stupid misstake and forgot to make a backup of the file when I changed the password (did it in md5 hash password). Still have the same problem. Tried to change the user ispconfig under mysql with a new password and saved the old one and did the same at config.inc.php but no change

The mysql passwords are never in md5 format. Mysql uses its own encryption method with its internal password() command.

This wasnt a good idea as this broke now all other services like postfix, pop3, imap and ftp on the server as they rely on the ispconfig mysql user and by changing them in the DB manually, all services will break. If you dont made a backup, I recommend that you uninstall ispconfig and reinstall it on master and slave.
